While the content provides good watches, the implementation of this app is embarrassing considering the company that makes it. I expect TED to be as cutting edge and well executed in its app development, but unfortunately there is nothing streamlined about this. Videos often freeze for no reason and must be exited to play again. I'm sure TED has enough money and contacts to make their Android app
